I could watch this constantly for 28 days.

This was the first Zombie I've ever seen, and i was completely bowled over by how good it was. The tag line is an accurate review already.
So, what is the basis of this movie? we have the jammy bloke who gets locked in the friendly local hospital and wakes up a month later to find London, and the rest of the England desolate. The accuracy of an empty London is quite literally, breathtaking (At a severe risk of sounding strange) Then his lucky butt is saved by bad ass survivors, from there they find other survivors and head up north.
Its an amazing watch and at not one point do you look away from the screen and think 'Could i be doing something better right now?' because, even when the zombies aren't around, it is still a very gripping film.
This is, without a doubt a modern day classic, not just as a zombie film, but as a cinematic great.
It utterly reinvents zombie films for this generation, perhaps forever. With not a moment lacking action.
One thing that stands out more than anything else during the film is the incredibly good character development, which is constantly and highly visible throughout the movie. The best examples of this is how the two main characters develop feelings for each other, and not in the cliché Shakespeare way. As well as Jims growth from timid newcomer to the group, to zombie slaying ass kicker.
All in all its a thrilling film brimmed with explosive scenes and realistic effects, add the great drama and plot and you have yourself a classic, a classic named 28 Days Later
